HC Deb 09 March 1908 vol 185 c1101
* MR. REES

I beg to ask the Undersecretary of State for the Colonies whether a Commission has been appointed, or whether a Conference will take place, regarding the federation or unification of the customs of South Africa; and, if so, whether Nyassaland will be duly represented.

MR. CHURCHILL

A Customs Conference of the South African Colonies is expected to meet shortly, but it is not proposed that Nyassaland, which is not a member of the present South African Customs Union, should be represented at the Conference.
